Improvements to Passive Acoustic Tracking Methods for Marine Mammal Monitoring
The long-term goal of this project is to improve model-based passive acoustic methods for tracking marine mammals. When possible, tracking results are used to study marine mammal behavior and bioacoustics. The first three objectives of this project are to investigate and implement several specific i...
